The Biggest Brag

Gossip Gang

My Review:This is a great collection of Berenstain Bears' stories, one that were old and ones that were new to me. What I most love about these stories is that I enjoyed the Berenstain Bears so much growing up and now I can still share them with my kids and we can talk about the lessons that are shared in these stories. Each of the 5 stories included in this collection have a great lesson to be learned included helping out in the community and loving one's neighbors. Then the issue of gossip and talking behind others' backs is discussed in "Gossip Gang;" this was a new one to me and I thought the lesson was shared well as it was right on level for children. The stories are well-written, the pictures are adorable and the characters are much loved.
